Senza avanzi non si avanza. Per un’ecologia del discorso sulla sostenibilità in architettura / The Surplus Value of Surpluses: For an Ecology of the Debate About Sustainability in Architecture
No full textCi sono termini che, invece di inquadrare una definizione precisa, tendono ad assorbire significati. Sostenibilità è senz’altro uno di questi. Chi lo pronuncia può intendere cose estremamente diverse e ancora maggiore è la varietà di interpretazioni possibili per chi lo ascolta e, inevitabilmente, vi proietta le proprie convinzioni e aspettative.

vittime dell’ambiguità delle sue applicazioni operative.

Those who pronounce it can understand extremely different things, and even greater is the variety of interpretations possible for those who listen to this word, inevitably projecting their beliefs and expectations on it. As architects, we make far too wide use of it: forced by the urgency of the issues involved and, at the same time, inclined to exploit the intrinsic "goodness" of the concept (who could claim to be against a responsible use of resources?), we often end up being victims of the ambiguity of its operational applications
